Every Monday, I highlight a non-profit related to history or the arts, a historical society, preservation group or friends group whose main objective is to promote the historical and artistic history of New Jersey and beyond.

This week, I am featuring the volunteers of the Military Technology Museum of New Jersey. The museum is located at historic Camp Evans in Wall Township, New Jersey and has only been open to the public for about a year. But over the past 35 years, members have privately amassed one of the largest and rarest collections of both static and operating military vehicles and equipment in the world, which is now on display! The mission of the Military Technology Museum of New Jersey is to, "Educate school children and the general public, through both static and interactive displays depicting past military technological changes and inventions that affect our daily lives today."

The Military Technology Museum of New Jersey relies on donations and volunteers to continue its mission. For more information on events and exhibits hosted by the Military Technology Museum of New Jersey or to volunteer, please visit http://militarytechnj.wix.com/main or their Facebook page.

If you are a member of a non-profit organization or know of one that you would like to see featured on this site, please let us know in the comments or send an e-mail to kelly@thehistorygirl.com.
